Emunah Can Change Nature (AMAZING STORY)

1:35Okay. The other one that had financial problems didn't believe in the Chachamim. In fact, he was against it. He thought that was nonsense. But his wife did. His wife believed in the Chachamim. She said, honey, listen. The paritz, the head, the mayor, said if you don't pay him back the loan by Friday, he's going to kill you. You have no other choice. You have to go get help. Go to the Chacham. Go to the Rebbe of Ruzhin. He said, what's the Rebbe going to do for me? He said, give me the money. What's he going to do for me? I don't know. Hashem said, when we need help, we go to the Chachamim. Go to the Chacham. What is he going to do? He has financial problems, and his wife doesn't listen to him anyway. So now he has to go to the Chacham. So he goes to the Chacham, and the other one goes to the Chacham. The Rebbe of Ruzhin wasn't able to see him that day. But they asked, they said, listen, we came from far away. Please help us. So they go, b'seder. Well, the Tzaddik went to the Rebbe, and he said, listen, this one's sick. This one has financial problems. So the Rebbe of Rizhin wrote him a little message. This is what you should do. For the sick person, he said, there's a cure for you. Take leeches, take leeches, and put them all over your body, and they'll suck out the disease from you. That was a medicine, apparently, that would work.

3:03that suck out the blood from you, that suck out the disease from you. And for the guy with the financial problem, he says, don't worry. Don't worry, the salvation of Hashem is going to come to you before the blink of an eye. Don't worry, everything's going to be fine. The gabbai made a mistake. He switched the messages. He made a mistake. He gives the guy with the financial problems the cure — the leeches. He gives the guy with the disease the assurance that everything's going to be okay, but no actual cure. So now, the guy with the financial problems doesn't believe in the Chachamim. Looks at this, and he gets angry. What anger he has. Now, he has everything to say. He says he already didn't like the Chachamim as it is, and now he has a reason to dislike them. Why? Because I'm telling him I have financial problems, and he's telling me to go and put leeches to suck my blood out. It's not enough that the Palit wants to kill me; now the Chacham wants to take my blood out too and torture me before it. What kind of Chacham do you have? He throws the note at his wife. What is this as a Chachamim? Is this what your Torah teaches?

4:18He says, you better do what he says. If he wrote it to you, you better do what he says. I'll do something. Everybody's scared of their wife. What is he going to do with the poor guy? The paritz is going to kill him in a few days anyway. What is he going to do? He listens to his wife. His wife goes, collects all of the leeches she could possibly find, and she puts them everywhere, all over his body. Miskin, poor guy. Blood everywhere, swelling everywhere. There's blood coming out of his forehead, out of his head, out of his arms, out of his legs, out of his feet, everywhere he has blood. Hashem yerachem. They really, mamash, literally sucked the blood out of him. Now Friday comes, the paritz sends his people, the mayor sends his people, no, come. They see this guy half dead. Everywhere they don't know what happened says, "Listen, I don't care—blood or no blood—you have to pay the money." He said, "I can't move." "Okay," we'll take the bed." They took him in his bed to the mayor's office. As Hashem would have it, the mayor was having lunch with his wife. His wife sees this poor guy coming, bleeding everywhere, the bed is full of blood, and the workers, the employees of her husband...

5:40Bring in this guy. He says, Yohan? The mayor's name, Yohan. Yohan, this is what you do? This is what you do to people? Look what you did to this poor guy. Me scared, what'd you do to him? Poor guy. Why? Why does he owe you money? That's why you do this to him? You know probably what he did? He probably went to go look for money for you, and they probably beat him up in the woods. They probably took all of his money. What is he gonna do? How's he gonna work? How's he gonna survive? How could you do this to people, Yohan? What kind of husband are you? What kind of mayor are you? He says, "Yoel? The mayor's name, Yoel. Yoel, is this what you do? Is this how you treat people? Look what you did to this poor guy. He's scared, what did you do to him? Poor guy. Why? Does he owe you money? Is that why you did this to him? Do you even know what probably happened? He probably went to look for money for you, and they probably beat him up in the woods. They probably took all of his money. What is he going to do? How's he going to work? How's he going to survive? How could you do this to people, Yoel? What kind of husband are you? What kind of mayor are you?" She starts giving him a hard time. She begins hitting him and yelling at him. What kind of husband are you? Did Eliyahu Hanavi go into her or something? She became the advocate for this little guy who didn't even believe in the Chachamim. So you're on my case, you're on my case. I just want my money. I don't want to beat up anybody, but okay. What do you want me to do, honey? How much does he owe you? Some money. Forgive the whole debt.

6:38Okay, okay, forgive him. No, but what now? He can't work. We scan his blood every way. He probably can't work for six months, a year, two years, five years. You have to give him money. He has kids, probably. He has a wife. He has kids. You have to give money. You have to pay his salary every month for the next five years. Okay, okay, honey. Whatever you want. The guy goes home bleeding but smiling. Bleeding but smiling. He doesn't know, how could this be? So he says, what can I do? His wife says, now you have to go to the Rebbe of Ruzhin and ask for forgiveness. Beg for forgiveness. Beg him for forgiveness. He goes to the Rebbe of Ruzhin, who now is healthy, and he sees the Rebbe. He says, "Kvodo Harav, I'm sorry, I didn't believe in you, I didn't believe in what you said, I thought you made a mistake, but apparently Hashem gave you..." The real cure didn't make any sense. He goes, what cure? Didn't you have financial problems? He says, yes, and you told me to put the leeches on me, no? He goes, no, no, that's not what I told you. I told you that everything's going to be fine. He goes, so how do you explain it? He says, it's because of your wife. Your wife has emunat chachamim and Hashem changed nature just to satisfy your wife.

8:02And you will see that the other guy who was supposed to use the cure, watch, he's going to come soon, and you're going to see he's cured. Without the leeches, he's cured. And that's what happened. The guy showed up, cured. How? No leeches, no nothing. Hashem runs the world. Hashem runs the world. It's important to have emunat chachamim. If you find one, you have to have emunat chachamim. Hashem runs the world in a certain way. In a certain way because He wants you to understand that if you find a kosher person, a real chacham, He's going to use him as a vessel to tell you the truth. But if your chacham is not really a chacham, he knows a lot of books, but he's also playing football with you. He knows a lot of books, but he's watching football with you. He's having 4th of July parties with you. He's having a few drinks with you. He's your friend more than your rabbi. Look elsewhere. Look elsewhere because you need a chacham in your life. You need somebody in your life who is going to help you. Help you understand the Devar Hashem. Help you understand the words of Hashem. Seek guidance from a true talmid chacham who can illuminate the Torah path with wisdom and sincerity.
